Bethel Should Consider Drama and it's Usefulness to Church SDtiuvdideenst S$e5n8a0te0 B7u Wdgae st by Dr. Richard K. Curtis
Publishing of this article was
stimulated by the recent "Drama
and the Church" panel discus-sion.
Dr. Richard Curtis was a
panel member.—Editors.
Bethel, as a Christian college
with a traditionally evangelical
emphasis, should take time to for-mulate
carefully its policy of us-ing
drama. This is partly due to
its cost, in time and money, and
partly due to its controversial na-ture
as an effective tool for spread-ing
the message of the church.
Drama has been used, to a
greater or lesser degree, by re-ligion,
and, more particularly by
the church, for hundreds of years.
During the Middle Ages it was a
popular medium for the Church,
with its varied expressions in the
form of Miracle Plays, Mystery
Plays, and Passion Plays. But as
the Church lost favor with people,
especially with the onset of the
Renaissance, the Church was bur-lesqued
by means of the play,

Church's Use of Drama
Letters
to the
Editor
(No letters today—Editors)
by Maurice Lawson
This is the first in a series of
articles by Mr. Lawson on his
European trip last summer. —
Editors
Last winter when I wrote to a
friend in Germany outlining our
proposed European trip—it was to
take two months, we would travel
by car through eleven countries
with the possibility of including
Egypt and the Holy Land—she re-sponded
caustically, "I see you are
"going to be typical American tour-ists."
This disturbed Muriel and me,
for we deliberately planned not to
be like all the other Americans. We
were not going to stay at expen-sive
hotels, tip lavishly, look down
our noses at European customs,
criticize the food.
Rather, we wanted to be one of
them, using their campgrounds,
putting up in their small hotels,
(continued from page one)
creating a rift between drama and
the Church. This was accentuated
and perpetuated by the introduc-tion
of Elizabethan drama, with
its raw depicting of evil as well
as by the traditional licentiousness
that characterized, at least in the
public's mind, the actors them-selves.
In America the reaction of the
church against drama was inten-sified
by its twin pietistic and
Puritan heritages with their pro-nounced
emphases on separation
from the world.
With the advent of radio and
TV, there has come a new aware-ness
of the potentiality of drama
as a highly effective means of
propagating the gospel. The church
and its schools have had to re-examine
their position of tradi-tional
antipathy to drama. It is
worth noting that some few TV
programs of a religious nature
have been done that have been
highly effective. That the church
could utilize the legitimate stage,
apart from local church and cam-pus
productions is questionable in-deed.
But that the church can con-tribute
significantly to radio and
TV programming with some high-toned
dramatic productions is a
distinct challenge.
In regard to Bethel's unique po-sition,
there appears to be a dil-emma
needing a carefully worked
out (and dynamic) solution. On
the one hand, there is the drastic
need of evangelicals to face in
their literary creations and in their
preaching a life - like situation,
divorced of the mamby-pamby,
milk and water stereotype that
makes our testimony to appear
insipid to some, downright dis-honest
to others. On the other
hand, we need to remember that
Creative efforts of

likely be found in print.

shopping in their open markets,
eating in their "bistros." Now we
realize that the very fact that
we were planning to do so much
in such a short time was as dis-tinctly
American as the belt I was
wearing that an Italian pointed to
saying, "American! How I know?
Belt on pants."
Now that we have made the
trip, we know that we will never
do it that way again. Next time
we will make a more intensive
visit to a smaller area. On the
other hand, knowing what we know
now, if we were again planning
our first trip abroad, we would
do it just as we did. For travel-ing
is like reading a large and
difficult volume. First you scan
the whole work; then you read
the chapters one by one.
the church has a unique message
which, in the course of presenting
life as it is, must become evident.
Furthermore, secular drama is far
more capable than we of present-ing
the immorality of the seamy
side fo life—easily misinterpreted
as sanction by undiscriminating
members of our constituency.
Perhaps distinctions ought to be
made between plays produced for
our own limited campus fellow-ship,
and plays that are open to
the public, and which appear to
carry the imprimateur of the ad-ministration
and faculty.
We at Bethel should compare
what our own campus is offering
with what other church-related
colleges, especially those of an
evangelical tradition, are offering
in drama.
We ought to be discreet in select-

Editorial
The Theatrical Barriers
Last weekend Bethelians interested in co-curricular activity were
treated to two programs in the area of speech and dramatics. The first
of these was an evening of competition in oral interpretation and ora-tion
attended by some twenty or thirty people. The other was a panel
discussion on "drama and the church" which drew approximately the
same crowd. It is not unlikely that some members of the audiences
were required to attend by certain professors.
Earlier in the school year the schedule called for the Royal Players
to present "Rebel Without a Cause," a play dealing with juvenile
delinquency, on those nights. But for fear of objection, internal and
external, the dramatics group "decided" not to do "Rebel." This is
unfortunate, for there is little doubt that the play would have at least
drawn a larger crowd.
But the contest and the panel were worth while. The panel discus-sion
was quite interesting in its discussion of some of the traditional
objections to dramatics among evangelicals. The three main objections
brought out by the panel (though not necessarily their own feeling)
were: a stream of puritanical influence still existent in evangelical
circles today, the hypocrisy of dramatics in that actors appear to be
what they are not, and the fact that "actors are evil."
Each of these arguments is rather easily debunked. Puritanical in-fluence
has been out of the evangelical system in most areas for quite
a while. To call dramatics illegitimate on the grounds of hypocrisy
could lead to dismissal of some important ministerial tactics which would
likely take much vitality from the pulpit today, and, as one spectator
whispered, "Ministers would have to stop imitating Billy Graham."
And to yell "actors are evil" is to deny that most, if not all people,
naturally are, and that all professions have some evil people in them.
Judgments of immorality have to be made, not in the light of
degrees of immorality, but in the amount of corrupting influence in
the profession.
The discussion, although not too well organized or pin-pointed,
was a healthy thing and similar ones in the future would be valuable.
But, the Bethel community has yet to see a dramatic production this
year.
This, as explained before, is because the Royal Players "decided"
to drop "Rebel." And no other ideas appear to be flourishing. Apparent-ly
there is a lack of a play to perform. There are few worth while
Christian (in the evangelical sense of the word) plays, so the players
will probably have to draw from a secular source. It would be too bad
if the Players had to drop another play for someone's fear of stepping
out of our non-existent ivory tower.
A Note About Money
The student senate budget for the year 1959-60 appears on the
front page of this paper. It appears there to inform people in the
financial area of student government, the area in which student govern-ment
and its existence can be strongly questioned. One might say
"What are those activity-hungry people doing with all that money ?"
or, if one were of a different persuasion and perhaps a little better
informed, one might say, "how can student government be expected
to exist on such a meager sum ?"
Had we printed a more detailed account of the budget, the average
male would know that the expenses for Sno-Daze total approximately
$1,000 (the average male would then pay his seven dollars less grudg-ingly)
; the non-athletes, male and female, would know that $240 is
spent annually on intramural athletics; everyone would know that "The
Mikado" only cost the cultural council $35, the religious council is
allotting $250 for the Eureka Jubilee singers, and the poor seminary
council only gets $190 this year.
These facts help one to see more clearly the limitations or lack
of limitations placed on student leaders financially. And this short
presentation is by no means the entire picture. A quick look at the
detailed senate budget would likely surprise everyone in some way.
But, at least it is now possible for Bethelians to see generally the
financial picture, and complain intelligently about wasted money or
lack of activity depending on their complaint.

does involve the buying of more
equipment.
Mr. Shearer also said that one
of the most needy places in terms
of radio equipment is the newly
acquired mission work on the Aleu-tian
Chain in the North Pacific.
The missionary here is Pearl
Wright, and at present her only
contact with the mainland is by
mail which is extremely infre-quent
and irregular. Radio equip-ment
adequate to give her con-tact
with the mainland was on dis-play
in the Bethel library during
Missions Week. The cost of this
equipment is $200, and a "side-band
adapter" which allows over-seas
contact, can be purchased for
an additional $70.
When asked whether this equip-ment
would see direct service in
evangelization, Mr. Shearer com-mented
that this is not so much
the purpose at the moment, and
that there is currently a great
deal of good missionary broad-casting
going on. The main object
in this program is to keep in touch
with the missionaries and to learn
their needs so that we may pray
intelligently for them. Placement
of such radio equipment in a mis-sion
station would be a tremend-ous
boost to over-all missionary
moral.
Mr. Shearer emphasized the
point that this is not an experi-ment
and that radio is being used
effectively by others. He said, "the
opportunity is there and is com-pletely
at our disposal to exploit."
Editor's note : This radio
equipment has been purchased
by the religious council. A spe-cial
offering for this will be re-ceived
soon.

The cultural council has purchased a block of tickets for the Min-neapolis

available to Bethel students at $1.25. This reduced price is possible be-cause
the council is underwriting part of the purchase price. Included
in the price of the ticket is transportation to and from Northrup audi-torium,
where the concert is to be held.
This concert will be featuring Eugene Istomin, pianist. Mr. Isto-min,
regarded by many as the greatest of the American-born-and-trained
pianists has given concerts on every continent. Since 1956 he
has circled the globe three times, appearing in major cities in Japan,
Australia, South Africa, Europe and the Americas.
In his own country, Istomin won early recognition. He has ap-peared
with the New York Philharmonic and the Philadelphia orchestra.
He is a frequent guest artist with the Boston and Chicago symphonies
as with numerous other orchestras.

the loss to Superior to what he
called "The Monday night blues."
The twenty-three percent shoot-ing,
the poor passing, and poor
defense were also big factors in
the Royal's second loss of the sea-son.
The Eau Claire game, the
last of a string of three games in
four days, was lost mainly be-cause
the boys were just too tired,
according to Coach Healy. How-ever,
he said that the Royal cag-er's
played a generally better game
than the previous night's tilt.
Mr. Healy was also asked about
our next two games, which were
Milwaukee Institute of Technology
on Dec. 16, and Lakeland on Dec.
17. About M.I.T., he said that even
though he doesn't know anything
about them this year, last year
they weren't too tough, and, in
his words, "we ought to rack 'em."
(We did too.) The Lakeland game,
he said, would be much tougher.
(Not so tough after all.)
The next Second Guessers meet-ing
will be held tonight at 6:15

Volleyball season, for boys intra-murals
anyway, is a thing of the
past and listed above are the re-sults
of the volleyball play-offs.
Entering the scene now is basket-ball.
Last Monday night the first
basketball games were played. The
Dukes, Counts, Peasants, and
Barons were the victors. The Dukes
nudged the Knights by a slim
margin, 56-55, while the Counts
were romping over the Pages by
a tune of 72 to 57. In the latter
games the Peasants rolled to an
easy win over the Jesters, 79-52,
while the Barons were defeating
the Squires by an impressing ten
points, 51-41.

points. Sheplee, Peterson, and
Kindall of Bethel also scored in
the double figures.

John Peterson lays up two
more points as our camera catches
him in action. John has proved
himself to be a very versatile
member of this year's basketball
team. Coach Healy has used him
at both the guard and forward
positions.
Green, of Northwestern, was fea-tured
as he continually swiped the
ball from a non-alert Bethel play-er.
The half ended, however, with
the Royals leading by nine points,
43-34.
The first part of the third quar-ter
saw Northwestern rally to
within six points of the leading
Royals. Bethel soon turned the
tables as Wayne Kindall and Les
Borms ripped the nets to start
a drive which put the Bethel team
way out in front. With leads as
high as 16 points Bethel controlled
the third quarter and the quarter
ended 63-51.
In the final and clinching period
the Bethel five continued their
scoring splurge, with each player
contributing. With five minutes of
play remaining Coach Healy jerked
his starting five as the score stood
76 - 56. Substitutes Jim Ekblad,
Dick Larson, Dan Nelson, and Curt
Sanborn, carried the game to the
end. Northwestern was able to
put through four fast points in
the final seconds of the game and
as the buzzer sounded to end the
game with the score standing at
86-69, Bethel.
All five of Coach Healy's start-ing
players hit in the double fig-ures.
Les Borms led the scoring
for the Royals by ripping the
nets for 24 points. Mery Sheplee
followed close behind with 23, as
Kindall, Peterson, and Turnquist
hit for 14, 11, and 10 respectively.
In the first game between the
reserve squads of each team the
Bethel five defeated Northwestern,
81-56.
